I think that Ros and Clown both think of the other as their pet

Welcome, welcome, one and all!

Hey gang! I’m Calliope (but please, call me Cal) and I run Night Raven’s gossip exposé, as well as the occasional agony aunt. This is all in good fun so please feel free to be as silly as you like and expose ANYBODY, but don’t be too spiteful about it when actual people are involved. Be warned, everything I uncover goes into my blackmail files…

BUT before anything happens let’s get over some ground rules!

•No hatred. Homophobia, racism, bigotry, the like.

•Innuendos, jokes and things a la ‘I heard X is banging Y’ are fine, but please no sexual content. •Cursing is fine (I curse a lot) but I’d rather no slurs.

•No proshipping, incest or pedophilia. That’s not interesting, just gross.

•I am NOT equipped to deal with heavy topics.

•I’m still a student after all, so obviously I won’t always have the time to answer asks immediately, and there may be times I go on short hiatuses for big projects and finals.

•All asks I’m comfortable with will be answered. There’s no need to spam. If your ask wasn’t answered, it’s because it violated a rule. •Remember that both Cal and the person behind this mess are both minors with feelings!

Now about me! I’m Cal, a second year in diasomnia. I go by she but I really don’t care what you refer to me as. I also have a small army of adopted first years, muehehe. Unvale lore doc found here.

Imagine being Tubbo and the same day that Pangi tells you that he killed every single bee within a 1000 block radius, Clown tells you that he's not only prestiged his enchanting skill but also maxed it a second time. And the server has only existed for five days.

Glad to see that no matter where he goes Clown will always find some blue haired little freak to grab by the scruff and take under his wing as some sort of evil apprentice

Just-just ues.

Branzy is not some innocent waif by any means, but I feel like everyone misunderstands the ways in which he matches Clown’s freak. Particularly, they want to subvert what they view as the architypical dynamic between Branzy and Clown without any real regard to how Branzy's personality actually meshes with Clown's. They recognize that Clown’s intimidation of Branzy is surface level, but don’t seem to grasp what’s going on below that to give Branzy his own edge over Clown.

Branzy is a homicidal maniac in his own right, and certainly has aspirations of being the kind of murder machine that Clown is, but he just does not have the fighting skill to back it up, nor was he a particularly skilled engineer when he first joined Lifesteal. At his core, Branzy is a coward. He gravitates towards whichever player or team he thinks is going to protect him, and he'll stroke their ego to get in their good graces. He gets by on his charisma and charm.

Clown, despite having a clear advantage over Branzy, still frequently comes across as uncomfortable with Branzy's attention, while also craving it and seeking it out. He's also a deeply reserved individual. Even when he's emoting he's still very quiet and even tempered. He plays his cards close to his chest. He's a loner. He has his reputation in part because he's unreadable and intimidating. He was coming off of a season where he hadn't died a single time. He’s an unstoppable force without an immovable object.

So here's the scenario: You're a stoic assassin. Usually you like to work alone. Other people slow you down. But you want revenge and you want to execute it in a particular manner that just happens to be outside of your wheelhouse. You have to team up with someone, and it just so happens you know someone with passable talent and a common enemy. You can tell he's afraid of you, and he should be, because he can't even beat Spepticle in a fight, how would he ever take on you?

But he's also... strangely affectionate. You box him in and he lets you, even as he's shaking with fright. You flirt and he flirts back. You're used to letting your reputation speak for itself, but here he is singing your praises to anyone who will listen. He puts all the credit for the collaboration on you, and downplays his own contribution. He sticks around even after you've exacted your revenge, and he still has nothing but good things to say about you, no matter how much you push and prod and scare and tease.

The fundamental difference between Branzy and Clown is vulnerability. Branzy has had no choice but to embrace his, while Clown has done everything in his power to excise it from himself entirely. Branzy allows himself to have big emotions and Clown barely speaks above a whisper at any given moment. When it comes to a fight, of course there isn’t much that can scare Minecraft’s Deadliest Assassin. But Clown has no idea how to navigate emotions, while emotions are Branzy’s greatest asset. People relate to Branzy, they trust him, and he uses it to manipulate them right into their traps. He can trick others’ emotionally as easily as Clown can cut them down with his sword. His relationship with Clown was made on the foundation of betrayal; he sacrificed his alliance with Vitalasy for Clown's protection. It was more important to him to stay on Clown's good side than remain loyal to his previous team, and this is because he felt, with 100% certainty, that Clown offered him more than Vitalasy did. And Vitalasy never saw it coming. 

That’s what makes Branzy so terrifying to Clown. Because he trusts Branzy. He lets his guard down around Branzy. He lets himself be vulnerable with Branzy. What if Branzy’s just manipulating him too? Or worse. 

What if he’s not?

Seeing a post analyzing Zam's relationships and it doesn't even mention Pangi... Pili really is the first friend he's ever had that cares about him as much as he cares about them.

i can't stop thinking about clown saying "i guess me and branzy do go together like peanut butter and jelly don't we ☺️"

I think the shock at Pangi and Clown's Behaviors must just be a minecraft generalist thing because even with Hermitcraft those guy are doing The Most at any given moment. Grian once used the dragon egg to make a LAMP. HE USED IT AS BACKGROUND DECOR! IT WASN'T EVEN RELEVANT TO THE STORY ARC HE JUST REALLY WANTED A COOL LAMP FOR HIS BUILD!! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO NOTICE THAT THE LAMP WAS MADE OF DRAGON EGG!!!
